HERE’S HOW WE’LL HELP

Credit scores.

Your current rating isn’t quite as high as it needs to be to qualify for a mortgage.

Your coach advises you and gives you access to the tools necessary to improve your credit scores, while checking in every 45 days to keep you on track.

Down payment.

You don’t have the necessary down payment just yet. In an online, debit card world, it’s easy to spend money you can’t see.

Your Path2Buy coach understands the “real” numbers required for a down payment (for example, 3.5% for FHA loans) and can show you what to do to get there. Your coach will help you stay on the path with regular check-ups.

Job insecurity.

You’re afraid to commit to a mortgage because your current job doesn’t feel secure.

Your Path2Buy coach keeps in touch to check on changes in your job outlook. Together, you’ll be ready to make the move when you feel the time is right.

Debt-to-income ratios.

You have too much debt to qualify for a mortgage right now.

Well-versed in debt management, your coach can share valuable tips and insight creating a debt paydown plan that will keep you on the Path2Buy.

Debt-to-income comfort zone.

Your debt‑to‑income ratio may be acceptable to others but not for your comfort levels. You have other obligations like tuition, or helping out a family member, that don’t show up on your credit report but get paid out of your checkbook.

Once you share your financial position with your Path2Buy coach, you’ll receive solid advice on getting yourself to a point where you feel more comfortable with your debt.

Misinformation.

Anyone can post a blog, publish a website, or create a YouTube video. Many people believe false reports about credit qualification, down payments and other issues related to home buying.

Your Path2Buy coach will give you accurate and reliable information on down payment, credit score minimums, and other home buying issues, and will keep you up to date with all guidelines in the ever-changing mortgage industry.

Mobility.
You are concerned that your job may transfer you, or a new job would require you to relocate, and are worried about how quickly you can sell the house you just bought.

Your Path2Buy coach will update you on the average selling time in your specific market. Your coach will also be connected to the right individuals who can provide advice if renting out your home becomes an alternative.

Designed as an equity-creating mortgage option, the Wealth Building Loan requires no down payment and offers offers eligible borrowers a 7-1 Adjustable Rate Mortgage with a 20-year amortization.

Wealth Building Loan Benefits The Wealth Building Loan eliminates monthly mortgage insurance payments nearly four years sooner than a 30-year conventional loan with a 3 percent down payment. Overall, this loan option helps homebuyers build equity quickly by applying more of their payment to principal and less to interest each month.

With adjustable rate mortgages, the interest rate is variable and may increase or decrease every year after the initial fixed rate period based on changes to an index. This could result in an increase in the monthly payment. All loan requests are subject to credit approval as well as specific program requirements and guidelines.
